Ancient astrology was practised by making astronomical observations (in an age long before the telescope was invented), so the two subjects of astrology and astronomy were once closely intertwined. Modern forms of astrology, which claim to foretell the destinies of individuals, have often come under close scientific scrutiny, yet have been consistently found to have no provable predictive powers. While many find modern astrology to be entertaining, it has very little basis in science, apart from using certain scientific terms and nomenclature.
